Going off Wellbutrin, onto Prozac

[MGee]

I have been on and off prozac for 11 years. In a relationship for 1 year and went from the usual low sex drive to NO sex drive (after being off prozac for several months). In the last couple of months I have become severely depressed as well. We went to a relationship counsellor who recommended wellbutrin, which I have been taking 150mg of for 6 weeks now, with no change other than dry mouth. I can't go on waiting and waiting - I need to get something that works now! Also Wellbutrin is way too expensive for me, especially if I have to double the dose (recommended by GP).I thought of changing back to prozac. Can I take them concurrently until what's left of the Wellbutrin (10 days) is finished? I have never suffered any withdrawal effects when going off prozac. Any other recommendations?

How does this free drug program work?  My husband makes well over $100,000/year so would I qualify? (I'm a housewife with 6 kids)

GlaxoSmithKline has a program for reduced med costs for their drugs (including Wellbutrin).  I was able to get on it and get 3 months free at a time.  Enrolling in the program is a bit of a pain and take at least 6 weeks, but it's worth it.

I did try the generic version of Wellbutrin XL 300 mg and the formulation didn't work for me at all.  But, of course, that won't be true for everyone.

the 300mg dose has a generic, its cheaper. You might want to reconsider this, especially if you want to maintain a relationship.
